Era.
Early on Sunday morning the Union

Early on Sunday morning the Union
elevator, owned by C. Cogel and occu
pied by N. r. Spur, was destroyed by
| fire. The engine house and engine
were saved. 1t seems that the fire
originated in the upper part of the
building, for when first discovered the
flames were bursting through the roof,
and they had gained such Roadway
and were so located that all efforts to
save the building and contents were
utterly fruitless. f. J.Jones' lumber
yard was the only property in imme-
date danger, and this was closely
wal, hed and spread of the fire pre-
vented. The West Side owes it's mar
row escape to the damp condition of
everything. The loss on the building
is about $1,000; insurance, S.. 500.
Loss on contents about $1,000; insur.
ance, SIS, 200.
We may now. without any appr E..
hension of the charge of indelicacy.
which some who should have known
better have incurred, refer to the
necessity for filling the vacancy in
the treasurer office made by the de-
cease of J. E. Favrow, the late in
cumbent. We can only hope that the
appointment will be made with spe-
cial reference to the fitness and ca
pacity of the appointee. whoever he
may be, and not us the result of wire
pulling and political expediency. The
taxpayers have every right to be we'll
served, and if each commissioner will
consent to be no more than the repre-
sentative of his constituency, we can
await the action Of the board with
confidence as to it's wisdom. We ques.
ton the right of the county commls-
sioners to permit SO long time rs will
elapse before next Saturday to wit
ness the closing of the treasurer's
office. 1t is possible that the time
could not have been more Opportune
for allowing Il lapse in the public serv-
ice, and we hope that nothing serious
may intervene, but we are quite con-
fident that it is not right. Why was

Concerning the question whether the Ger
man emperor travels free of expense on the
Prussian state railroads, it is new positively
stated that, with but single exception, the
emperor, as well as members of the imperial
family, neither enjoys or claims the privilege
of freeypassss. That exception..is the short
track of the Main-Weser railroad between
Caesel and Main, on which the
emperor alone, as successor to the Elector of
Hesse, pays no car fare either for himself or
his suite, nor for baggage; the princes and
the princesses of the imperial family are, how
ever, deprived of this privilege. On all the
other German railroads-and the emperor, be
it stated, always travels by extra train-he
pays the regular tariff fare for his person and
suite, as we'll as for the baggage. The aver
age rate is six marks per kilometre for every
axle, and in view of the fact that his majesty
travels many Thousand kilometres in the
course of year, the railroads have good Gus
toner in him. It is unnecessary to add that
he is treated as such in every respeet-the
railroad officials, from the chief down to the
greassr, use every possible care and precau-
ton against accidents of any kind.

RESTRICTING 1MmIGRATION.

One of the most important and interesting
matters with which congress will be called on
to deal this winter is the restriction of immi-
grafton. Senator Palmer of Michigan has
already introduced bill which will please
protect this country against undesirable i'm
migrants.
The bill is a radical one. It provides that
every passenger not citizen of the United
States shall be required to pay a sum of
money, the amount to be fixed hereafter, and
the owners of vessels in which such immi-
grants come shall be held responsible for the
payment Of the money before the passenger
10 landed. The second section directs the
secretary of the treasury to execute the act
aud provides the machinery for it's enforce
ment. Each immigrant must upon the pay
ment of his duty present to the agent of the
treasury department certificate from the
United States consul in the district from
which he comes, setting forth that the consul
is satisfied upon diligent inquiry that he is q
suitable person for citizenship in the United
States. The secretary of state under the
fourth section must provide rules and issue
~
not inconsistent with law and treaty obliga-
tions that shall enable well disposed and
worthy persons who desire to become citizens
of the United States to obtain certificates of
character and fitness without hardship or un-
reasonable delay, and these certificates shall
contain the full name of the individual to
whom they are issued with such other infor-
nation may be necessary for his identifca-
ton. No certificate shall be granted to any
person who has been guilty of crime, nor to
any lunatic, idiot or pauper, nor to any An
archist, Nihilist or any other person hostile
to the principles of the constitution or laws
of the United States, nor to any believer in
the Mormon religion, nor to any person who
fails to satisfy the consul that he is fit and
worthy citizen.
Senator Palmer thinks that if this bill
passes it will reduce the present immigration
about one-fourth. The discussion of it will
be interesting. Even if nothing should be
done now it is well to have the matter better
understood than it is. The opinion is spread
ing that something should be done.

Don't ssHoIler'' Before You Are Lfcket

Don't sHHOller', Before You Are Licked
Don't ''holler'' before you are licked. my boy,
There's deal in this you'll find;
This life is a battle and strife, my boy,
So bear this proverb in mind.
There are lots of men that have lost, my son,
And been out of their birth right tricked
And the reason they failed was this, my son,
They 'hollered" before they were licked.
Don't ''holler'' before you are licked, my boy,
Don't think of the fight as lost
If the blows are many strike back, my boy,
No matter what pains they cest;
The man that has muscle and brain, my SOD,
Is awake and will never be tricked;
If the chances are even keep COOL my son,
Don't ''holler' before you are licked
Don't 'hollers' before you are licked, my boy,
Nor yield though the fight is long;
For the darkest hour you must know, my boy,
Is the one before the dawn.
And don't trust to others for help, my son,
stand up to be counted-and stick;
Be brave as lion for right my son,
Don't 'holer'' before you are licked.

TUESDAY EVENING, AUGUST ..

A NEW JERSEY TRAGEDY.-A horrible
tragedy occurred in South Camden, N. j..
few minutes before six o'clock yesterday
evening, when VIM. Wiltshire, ffty-two
years of age, shot his wife, Ella, aged forty
seven. deliberately murdered Justice of the
Peace Vim. s. Darr, colored, and then fin.
ished the work of destruction by sending q
bullet through his own brain, dying almost
Instantly. Wiltshire had lived anhappily
with his wife for some time. About two
weeks ago Mrs. Wiltshire, becoming tired
of her husbands abuse, went to Squire
Darr's Office and had warrant issued
charging him with non-support and cruelty.
He was arrested, tried and ordered to pay
50 per week for the support of his wife anu
children. Instead of giving his wife the
amount ordered by the court ne gave her
but 50. The woman, with poverty staring
her in the face, appealed for more, but her
husband refused to listen the consequence
being that the old family quarrel was re
newed, and continued until death put an
end to it. A neighbor said that previous to
the tragedy Wiltshire entered the house,
grasped his wife by TIE throat, and COM
menced choking her. She succeeded in
getting away from him and ran to the office
of the unfortunate squire. She was telling
him her troubles when her husband, who
had been informed of her whereabouts, en-
tered, and three minutes later the wife,
husband and squire were dead.
